Amen. For the money, Innout is one of the values in fast food out there, fast food price but much higher quality food. Can't beat it.

Plus their milkshakes rock.

Huh - one might expect grilled guinea pig on a bun with a side of cocaine
rather than In-n-Out.

I was visiting San Diego two weeks ago and tried In-N-Out for the first time ever. My expectations were incredibly high as I have several "foodie" friends that love it. It was very disappointing. For some reason the "special sauce" they use just doesn't work for me with the ketchup they put on the top bun. Likewise, I added onion and it was essentially a thick slab of very strong yellow onion--which actually made it difficult to eat. I'll probably give it a second shot when I back down there, but for now, I'm not a believer.

What "ketchup they put on the top bun"? Ketchup is not a standard ingredient on an In-N-Out burger.

It's definitely one of the best "FAST FOOD" burger places. I've tried much better burger restaurants in So Cal.

Well, x by x (doesn't *really* matter what "x" is, although I find 6x6 and higher a bit too much, personally), animal style. Plus well-done animal style fries.

Yeah, that's the ticket.

Last time I tried a 5x5 it got screwed up... I ended up with a 4x4 and then a piece of meat and cheese on the side (for some reason they couldn't put it on the bun)... and they forgot to add in my Animal Style request...

Don't worry... I'll be back sometime

I admittedly hate everything about California (Ask my gf, I complain about how much it sucks daily)

In and Out is the only good thing but that F-ing state. I probably only eat fast food 3x a year but when I do its always In and Out on the way to Tahoe.

yes they are a decent burger. i get it on lettuce instead of a bun and they put other fresh veggies. not fine dining , but , it is decent tasting and filling. not too bad in nutritional content. beef is good for us sometimes.
